Alireza Ahmadpour, head of the Martyrs of the
Unknown Medical Group in Bandar Mahshahr, said the initiative was carried out
in cooperation with the city’s Shohada Clinic, offering free medical visits and
medicines in the Shahid Rajaei township.
The programme, supported by the management of
Bandar Imam Petrochemical Company and implemented in coordination with the Oil
Health Management Organisation and the Mehr-e-Velayat charity, benefited more
than 120 residents, Ahmadpour said.
He added that services included general and
specialist medical care, nursing and midwifery, blood pressure and blood sugar
screening, electrocardiograms, pharmacy services, injections, wound care and
traditional medicine, all provided free of charge.
Diagnostic services such as laboratory tests,
ultrasound scans and CT scans were also offered at no cost through prior
coordination, he said.
Ahmadpour highlighted the role of health-sector
donors and volunteer medical groups in expanding access to care for low-income
patients and easing pressure on the public healthcare system.
He said the company’s support, particularly
through its social responsibility programmes, had played a significant role in
reducing patient hardship and improving health outcomes in less-developed
areas.
The medical group plans to continue providing
such services on a regular basis under its annual schedule, he added.
